Encouragement Through the Review

From Sister Barrows.

DEAR BRETHREN AND SISTERS: How thankful we ought to be to our heavenly Father that he gives us the privilege of communicating one with another through the Review. I am often cheered and encouraged in this way to press on to serve God with, a whole heart. The Review is all the preaching we have on the third angel's message, yet I am not discouraged, but mean to put my trust in the Lord and obey all his commandments, believing he will never leave nor for forsake me. O how safe the Christian is amid all the troubles and turmoils of life. The Lord can bless one poor humble soul as well as a thousand. Sometimes I can say with the poet,
"I need not go abroad for joys, I have a feast at home,"
but if I could have the privilege of meeting with Sabbath-keepers to worship, I should esteem it a great blessing. I think we are living in perilous times. Cannot Bro. Hutchins or some other brother come to Bridgewater?
Your sister in love and union. PRISCILLA BARROWS. Bridgewater, Vt.
